Introduced in 2017, the Nintendo Switch is one of the best-selling handheld consoles in the world. Even today's sales managed to beat the Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
According to the latest figures from VGChartz, a video game sales tracking site, revealed that Nintendo Switch sales this week ending March 27, 2022 have sold more than 350 thousand units.
Where Nintendo Switch's weekly sales figures are much better than Microsoft's Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 as reported by us from Gizmochina, Wednesday (6/4/2022).
Meanwhile, the lifetime sales of Nintendo Switch sold so far have reached 106.21 million. This figure outperformed PS5 sales of only 18.66 million and Xbox Series X|S of 13.66 million.
The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, the predecessors of the PS5 and X|S, are the next top two consoles in terms of sales, respectively.
Nintendo Switch has a compact setup, this game console can be played directly without a TV (portable) and can also be connected to a TV.
Its versatility appeals to several segments of the gaming market and this could be the main driver of its huge sales. The price and quantity of games that are easily accessible on the console could also be a major driver of Nintendo Switch sales.
Nintendo Switch shipments globally are expected to peak soon, but it seems high orders that the current Xbox Series X or PS5 console will approach the Switch's stellar heights in terms of lifetime sales.
